Among the many reports of violence from the Charlotte, North Carolina unrest Wednesday night was one particular shocking example: rioters tried to throw a news photographer into a burning fire.

Local CW affiliate WCCB was on the scene and tweeted out images of the fire and their initial report.

It’s not yet clear whether this was the same instance, but a reporter with local NBC affiliate WCNC tweeted that one of their photographers was attacked in Uptown Charlotte, along with a reporter. Both were sent to the hospital.

One of our crews was attacked in Uptown.

Earlier in the night, a CNN reporter was attacked on camera and a civilian was shot, most likely by a fellow protester.
